Carla Botha, a junior transfer student at UM, grew up in the northern province of Limpopo, South Africa. She and her family later moved to the city of Johannesburg before she came to live in the United States in 2009.
She is 32 years old and as a child, she said, she witnessed the end of Apartheid. She described her family as “white, middle-class South African citizens with all the middle class privileges” but mentioned that hers is not the average situation.
“We think everybody’s equal but everybody’s not equal,” Botha said. “We have running water at the house but the people in the townships, they don’t necessarily have running water and they don’t necessarily have electricity. There’s still a huge difference between even just middle class and poor. I’m not even talking about rich.”

I’m sure if they just take whatever the whites have worked for and give it to the blacks, everything will be okay.
“Despite” of Mandela?
Or because of him?
We'd have to build a wall one hundred feet tall with barbed wire at the top to keep out the many surprised dopes i.e white liberals who thought they'd have a socialist paradise with conservative whites gone.
They'd find out real quick they were just some more greedy, white people who didn't want to share their "stolen" wealth with the oppressed i.e. takers.
Yeah - there are still a few whites left alive, so racial tensions probably do exist.
They haven't killed all the white people yet.
“I see the kids playing now and they don’t see color,” she said. “Friends are friends: black, white, purple or pink.”
She thinks that those kids are part of the generation that won’t care about race.
“It’s just gonna be like, ‘yeah, we all live together, and that’s the way it is,’” she said.

This woman has her head firmly stuck in the sand. The upcoming generation of young white urban South Africans are going to be overwhelmed when the racist murders of whites migrates from the farms to the cities/suburbs. Political Correctness can be a killer!
Mandela an abject failure as he was unable to eliminate racial tension in South Africa.
As long as one white still lives in South Africa, they will have someone to blame.
“Despite Marxism”
“The turnover of white control of SA to black power was an unmitigated disaster and signaled the eventual end of SA as a civilized country. Just look at Zimbabwe. That is the future of SA, and whites living there should try to get out while they can.”
You nailed it! One can see the same cancer coming to this country.
“”All of our houses have security walls””
I’ve done Google “driving tours” of South Africa using Google Maps. Pick a nice area, any nice area, and you’ll see something you never see in the US. Every, and I mean every, front lawn has a wall right through the middle of it, parallel with the street. There’s a gate to let cars in, but it is impossible to walk from the street to the front door of any house, of the hundreds that I’ve seen, without first getting through a yard gate.
It’s like the neighborhoods were originally built like conventional US housing, but now everyone has to wall themselves in. I can EASILY see that coming here, given all of the Central Americans we continue to invite in.
Interesting observation...
In reality, a wall isn’t much of an obstacle (unless bolstered with electrified fencing, razor wire, or such)
Or I wonder does it just make the un-walled places more inviting to the bad guys?
Nelson knew about the activities of his wife for years, and did nothing about it, until it became politically expedient.
He’s as guilty as she.

how about BECAUSE of Mandela?
South Africa’s rapist President ordered the state industries to lay off thousands of whites. Just because they are white.
Sounds like racism against the minorities to me.
this would of course have to include any white African Americans..in the country..
